How would the paragraph be different if the author did not use figurative language?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Most likely the paragraph would not be as vivid or engaging for the reader.

Explanation:

For example (and I'll try my best here) this is what the paragraph might sound like if it didn't have such figurative language:

<em>A</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em> </em><em>w</em><em>a</em><em>l</em><em>k</em><em>e</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>h</em><em>o</em><em>m</em><em>e</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em>r</em><em>m</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em>e</em><em>g</em><em>a</em><em>n</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>T</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>w</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>w</em><em>a</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>v</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>strong</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em> </em><em>h</em><em>a</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>h</em><em>a</em><em>r</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>m</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>w</em><em>a</em><em>l</em><em>k</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>f</em><em>o</em><em>r</em><em>w</em><em>a</em><em>r</em><em>d</em><em>.</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em> </em><em>w</em><em>a</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em>b</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>a</em><em>k</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>h</em><em>o</em><em>u</em><em>s</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>w</em><em>a</em><em>l</em><em>k</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em>a</em><em>c</em><em>k</em><em>w</em><em>a</em><em>r</em><em>d</em><em>s</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em>i</em><em>l</em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>w</em><em>i</em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em> </em><em>g</em><em>r</em><em>e</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>d</em><em>i</em><em>f</em><em>f</em><em>i</em><em>c</em><em>u</em><em>l</em><em>t</em><em>y</em><em>.</em>

Remember, authors use figurative language such as metaphors or similes to paint a picture for the audience, or to get a certain point across. In this instance the author is trying to relate to the reader of the sheer power the wind possessed over the narrator's body.
